Case of the Technical Knockout - How Does GPS Work

[staranjela]

some great inforamtion here thanks

[elel70]

They are very annoying...

[LumpyNumps]

"Do satellites have stopwatches?"

"Nooooo, (Stupid bitch) the satellites need to be more accurate than stop watches..."

[crbdudeandacamera]

so are there 29 satlites for every car on the planet?

How do rokets not crash into them?

[msms47]

@crbdudeandacamera lol nah 1 satliets can take millions of sngles so it cover millions of cars

[crbdudeandacamera]

@msms47 oh ok that makes sense, thanks.

[Digadogup]

[cdspela]

he's like "come here kids i got candy" i can see it in his eyes.

[Iam18yearsolddddd]

he's like "get the fuck off kids, why did I agree to do thi in the first place" I can see in his eyes.

[jkjkjij22]

3:21

his facial expression is like "No, you so dumb."

i'd like to screw that girl

[ANeonTiger]

@jkjkjij22 Haha he does the same thing at 4:12 - "NO! You dumb bitch"

I like to geo cache, I got my handheld from gpssatnavreviews (.) com

[cooljremix]

He sounds very dead :S

[ScorchinBeats]

Cheesy and Wierd, but very educational.

[mamatude33]

the guy sounds like a robotic voice...I thought it was Steven Hawkings(?). meanwhile that have this rock music in background trying to make it sound exciting.

[coolwave]

IHM likes men.

[Limpfittz]

why is he so fucking monoton ??+

[salebowwow]

It may be cheesy, but it's designed for kids. I tried explaining this concept to my 8 year old, and it's not easy for him to understand. I am going to show him this video and see if he understands it better.

[ism345]

so what are the four segments called?? anyone

[MuffiiinMan]

This is so fucking cheesy.

[nocrappinghere]

all acsbr friends i cant download the wks how to do

[Brand0nKun]

@nocrappinghere lol i also dunno leh

[terorvlad]

ok, ok. 24 sats. only 4 needed. 4 Satelites. THAT'S A LOT OF MONY and yet. gps is free. THANKS NASA :D

[HyperTeelee]

At 0:49 seconds it states that even though there are 29 satellites orbiting the Earth, only 24 are needed to provide...global carparage? What is that? I can't find any information on it.

[barkbud]

He says "global COVERAGE" not carparage.

[88snowbob88]

can someone help me with the energy transformations in a gps!? i've looked EVERYWHERE and im getting desperate

[teellbee]

Excellent animated graphics showing how the GPS satellites work. Demonstrating trilateration (first in 2D on a flat map, then in 3D) works very, very well. I'd give this more stars, but it's a bit wordy and the acting is stilted. I'd have liked to see more time spent on the animations with voice overs, instead of the actors talking.

[TheNinerion]

god thats so anoing!!!

but informative!

[naumanpak]

Very informative!

I am about to start work on a project that requires GPS.

I need to learn a lot more but a nice start..

thanks mate

[lilsk8boardcame]

IM SMART NOW!

[manzha]

the best description for GPS

[girondi1]

that shit is B-Ballin as hell

[2000jago]

what does "B-Ballin" mean? I've never heard of such a thing?

[girondi1]

it means awesome its a word we use on the south side of chicago lol.

[2000jago]

Thanks ;) A colloquialism then... since obviously the rest of the youtube community doesn't live on the south side of chicago. I'm sure I'm not the only one who never heard that expression before. But now I know...

[NotSoPrinceCharming]
